Early in the morning, Nova dropped her chores going out to the courtyards. Mudad's stood there was Hakuren ''Nova, you made it'' ''Took Aki some convincing but yes'' Mudad's placed a bow in her hands

''A bow?'' ''Horsing riding is next'' Nova gulped looking at the targets ''there a bit fair'' Hakuren patted her shoulder

''It's not that hard. Pull back your arrow'' Taking one out of the rack she pulled it back. Hakuren got down behind her. Resting his hands on hers, he pressed his chest against her back. Nova froze ''Stay calm, your going to hit the target''

Mudads on the other side of Nova, chuckled ''You keep your stomach tight'' Hakuren patted her belly ''Arms straight, but loss'' Nova nodded keeping her checks at bay. Hakuren stepped away ''Okay shoot'' Nova sucked a deep breath in, letting the arrow go

It threw slowly in the air before hitting the floor nowhere near the target ''Oh'' ''I missed'' Mudads bit his lip ''We got a day, to teach her how to shoot and ride a horse, are you sure you can fit all that in Prince Hakuren?'' ''I'm unsure now'' Nova pulled back another arrow, aiming up a little bit more. Shooting again, the arrow landed near the other one

''Nova, have you ever ridden a horse'' ''No'' ''Been next to a horse?'' ''No'' ''Seen a horse??'' ''No, Prince Hakuren'' Hakuren and Mudad's both groaned ''Okay let's keep going on the bow'' Hakuren rested himself against Nova's back again

''Keep these muscles tight, remember'' Running his finger across her shoulder, past her elbow all the way to her fingers tips holding the arrow and string. He clasped his hand over her small one, leaning in so his head was just behind her own

''Ready?'' His breath tickled down her next. The words getting stuck in her throat ''Keep it tight, don't follow your hand throw with the arrow'' Nova could only nod, with a shacking jaw. Hakuren being too blind to see the effort he had, he moved across to aim it at her

His leg pressing abasing her one, sent shivers down her spine. She had never felt this way before. It was strange, and weird something she didn't like ''Okay, you aim right at the target with one eye shut. Can you see it?'' Nova without even looking, nodding trying to keep her shacking under control

Letting the arrow go, it zoomed through the air. Hitting the target straight on ''Good job Nova'' Hakuren stayed where he was, patting her shoulder with one hand ''Let's give it one more try'' Nova gulped, the same threw things running through her mind

'Stay still. Don't move. Don't go red' But the more she said it to herself the more her cheeks redden ''Shoot'' Hakuren let his fingers go first, her's following. The next arrow hit the little to the side ''You did it again Nova'' Hakuren rub his thumb into her shoulder patting his fingers a little

''Prince Hakuren'' Royo called from the Plato ''Your bother wishes to speak with you'' ''I will be there soon. Keep it up Nova'' Mudads as soon as Hakuren was out of sight, shoved the back of his hand on Nova's forehead

''You're warm'' ''Yes. It's a bit warm today--'' As she spoke, thunder rumpled ''Hehe'' Mudad's rolled his eyes, swatting down ''I think it's time to have a talk'' ''About what?'' ''Boys''
